# Compact Genome [![Version](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/compact-genome.svg?style=flat-square)](https://crates.io/crates/compact-genome) [![Downloads](https://img.shields.io/crates/d/compact-genome.svg?style=flat-square)](https://crates.io/crates/compact-genome) [![Docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/docs-latest-blue.svg?style=flat-square)](https://docs.rs/compact-genome) A Rust crate to represent a genome string in memory. The crate defines trait abstractions over a genome string, and provides different compact implementations. At the moment, a bitpacked representation along with a basic ASCII representation of the base characters are supported.
